About this event

  • 5 hours

Our Kids Wild Adventure Club offers time for your older Wild'uns to really get involved in nature and all the fun activities we can possibly squeeze into 5 hours!

We are offering 1 session this Easter Holiday, for the older child, offering a space to discover who you are, and what you can do in our wild, free flow, 'Forest School' inspired sessions for children aged 9 - 13.

Held at our lovely site Heartwood in Frylands Wood Scout centre, expect a day of child led activity, learning bushcraft skills, using knives to whittle, using hand tools, making your own camp fires, arts, crafts, exploration and woodland fun.

Booking in advance is essential as we need a signed and completed consent form for every child taking part as we will have duty of care for your precious ones while they are with us.

Please send your children with a packed lunch, plenty to drink, spare clothing, waterproofs and wearing robust footwear.





About us...

We think that if everyone could spend a bit more time outside in nature, then the world would be a better place.

Suzy is the founder and director of Go Wild With Us UK Community Interest Company (established in 2016) and has been successfully reconnecting children, young people, adults and families with nature since 2008.

She has a deep connection to nature and is passionate about supporting others to rebuild their own connections with the Wild.

Suzy is a level 3 qualified Forest Schools Leader, a qualified yoga practitioner, holds a BA Hons in English Literature, a Post Graduate Certificate in Youth and Community and a PTLLS level 3. Suzy is a very experienced practitioner, having worked with children, young people, adults and families from a variety of backgrounds and with different abilities since 2001.

As well as being great at working with people, they have a wide range of skills and qualifications. Some are Forest School leader trained, and most have specialist experience in working with children and young people with learning difficulties and disabilities. All have trained with Suzy and the Go Wild Team over years to discover their own skills and individual place within our Wild Family.

We are incredibly lucky that all of our amazing team remain loyal and dedicated volunteers, some of whom were part of our 'Forest Project' for many years as young people, and who now help us out on a regular basis. Our community offerings would not happen without them.All our facilitators have enhanced DBS checks, are First Aid qualified and have attended relevant safeguarding training.

Organised by

Go Wild With Us is a Community Interest Company with a mission to try and reconnect people with nature and their own wildness. We believe that everyone needs regular contact with nature and the outdoors, and both research and personal experience tells us that being outdoors and spending time in nature is absolutely essential for good mental and physical well being.  

We know that not everyone is lucky enough to have access to wild spaces all the time, but through our partnerships with local community groups and charities, we try to do our bit to enable children, young people and families from a variety of backgrounds to get some meaningful time out there in nature.
